Duck's mobs
by duck_trooper
Duck's mobs adds passive and aggressive duck creatures to the Overworld, including a copper boss that drops a copper hammer when defeated.
What it does
Duck's mobs spawns a set of new animal and creature mobs in the Overworld, including deserts. Passive ducks can be tamed with cooked salmon, and an aggressive copper boss serves as a hunt with a trophy reward. Players can extract poison from one of the creatures to brew a health boost potion, and the boss drops a copper hammer when beaten. Cursed copper blocks spawn the mobs when activated with a left click.
The mod requires Geckolib on Forge, and it runs on the client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Forge 1.20.1 only, with version 1.0.0 dated 2025-09-28 as the latest file, under All rights reserved. The code is not open source.
